I was in the garden when they flew over my head, by the time I had the camera they had moved on a bit, the black spot on the right of the lamp post is another bunch far away already, but you can still see this lot.

We have a family of swallows bred four babies in the car port and now being taught to fly and feed from the owl box in our barn.

Been doing a bit of wildlife rescuing here lately.

1 bat (in daylight) escorted to outdoor safety from the kitchen.

1 frog and 1 toad fished out of water butt and released by the pond.

1 Moorhen chick released from Georgia's mouth and escorted to the pond.

The moorhens breed in our pond every year and, last year, produced four broods, a record for us. This year the poor things have had to contend with a mad spaniel and, lately, a huge digger making their home better for them (not sure they would agree but it had to be done :)).

Not sure they are, officially, wildlife but we have a trio of Peacocks around the village. No one owns them as far as anyone can tell. Peacocks being the generic term as I think they are peahens from the brief glimpses I have had. They are not popular as they start "calling" at about 4am. They are feeding people's plants and leaving lots of manure as a thank you :(

No Jean, just off to the side. I am very surprised they haven't peppered the car this time. Must have been that good talking too last time.

I think your too near the coast up there, peddle down the Oder dam if you can find it and you'll get to me😁.
How long are you staying there?
